My parents arranged a night out with the whole family including our Aunt who came back from OZ for a short holiday. Ooops…that’s include my sis’s BF (Hasdi) who is the other designated driver in the family 🙂 Where to? JB for a seafood dinner. Plus it’s an early birthday celebration for my dad who will be 57 this 31 Dec! So as the day is nearing till last night, the anticipation of it is overwhelming since this will be the first time my dad goes ‘out’ of the country…hehehehe…literally! after soo soo many years!

Excited :

The day came, with the whole family excited not only me mind you! Hmmm…especially my sis, being in love or so…hehehehe…sorry gerl, just gotta add this! Oh yeah of course my little boy too, as he is known to be excited with the idea of driving in convoys!

So here’s our ride….

plus the overexcited people! 🙂

Frustrated :

Oh well, what do you expect, of course its gonna be jam packed with cars on a Saturday evening! 😛

Happy :

The last time my mum met up with my aunt was a few months ago, so the moment they meet, they hug, cry a little (mum only)….

but of course everyone is finally happy to meet my Cousin Caca after like nearly ages! Future Doctor, insyaallah!

Panic + Funny :

We thought GPS works….NAH!!!..at least not for Malaysia map, we got lost instead!

Supposedly to go to this seafood village in Senibong, which is by the way somewhere in Permas Jaya. Us being first time to venture to this area, trusted so much on the Navigator thingy! We missed a turn at first but when we decided to make a u-turn, we end up to the same road and missed the turn again…oh wait in fact it was like riding on a merry-go-round! Got panic, stopped by the roadside and looked at my aunt’s directional map….LOL…but decided to follow the sign board instead!…duh!!..should have followed the board in the first place right?!….we and our technology-dependant self!

Confused :

We finally made it to our destination and found the seafood village but the thing is when we reached there, we found out that the restaurant is a non-halal one!…????huh????….

A relative of ours who recommended this place to my aunt, mention that it is a halal one?….confusion starts so my aunt called her and clarified that there is a “nasi lemak” signboard before entering to that other restaurant. Phew! Finally reached our destination! (miss out taking the entrance to this restaurant)…hmmmm…to0 much drama just to get to this place, what do ya expect?!!! hehehehe

But look at the view from where we are seated! We can see SingChaPor! Nice sunset eh?

Hungry :

That’s why we are here for 🙂

So hubby ate a few otak-otak while waiting for the food to be served, unfortunately I find that the otak-otak a bit fishy lah!

Dad got the first birthday present of the day from Aunt ; Peanuts!!! Appetizer for him perhaps 🙂

Puzzle cum Yaay Moment :

This part puzzled me. Its meant to be my dad’s birthday celebration but my Aunt got a 2nd present for my Dad AND Mum??..Play cheat hah Auntie! 2 in 1 ha?! LOL!!!

A bedspread!…Okaylah…it benefits both I must say, Mum with a lovely bedspread, Dad laid on the bedspread.

Full :

I remembered Dad love to listen to radio on the way to work and since he did not have it since so many years now, I decided to get him this:-

Alhough of course the night is still young, we went to Jusco before leaving for home and we brave through the congested causeway again but this time feeling satisfied 🙂

NOTE : This is the longest post I’ve written so far…Phew!
